FROM ABOVE ARTICLE:
Another Lakers game that leaves you unsure how to feel about it. The Lakers won their fourth straight and beat the Jazz for the second time in a baseball-series setup, which is always tough. They just keep collecting wins, so the result is nothing but good. The impression they left, though… that’s another story.
It was a game full of Jekyll and Hyde turns, with flashes of both good and bad, and for the Lakers to take the next step they will have to eliminate, or at least reduce, the bad stints. Again, the good news is that the results have been better than the play and the numbers suggest. The Lakers lead the NBA with a +2.5 win differential, which is the difference between the games they have won and what would be expected based on their point differential.
The Lakers have now won four games in a row, are tied with Denver for second in the West at 12–3, and are entering a four-game homestand, with the next two games against the Clippers and the Mavericks being NBA Cup games.
